Children 6-12 years: 4 puffs, every 1½-3 hourly.
Children under 6 year: One puff to be administered per 4 kg body weight, up to a maximum of 4 puffs, every 1½-3 hourly.
Because of the small amount of drug applied, elderly patients can receive the same dose as adults.
Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or they do not improve.
